So I just want to clarify a situation. I have been told that I am 1st in line for a GTS Turismo at my OPC. But they have not been given a first allocation yet for me to lock my spec. Does this sound correct? Or have UK dealership had allocations and eta’s? Thanks.

Same here but I don't want my car until Nov and I want a MY23 so not surprised I haven't been asked to finalise my spec yet.

I assume that "first in line" = will be the first to be assigned a new build when they get one allocated. They may already have had an allocation that they assigned to existing orders, some of which may have been delivered, others will have a planned build date. Demonstrators are part of their allocation and AFAIK each dealership decides whether to use any of their allocation for demonstrators.

Same here. Hopefully we've all been to different OPC's!
? I'm another one that's been promised the first GTS ST at my OPC (deposit placed last August). Haven't heard of any UK dealer having any news of allocations yet.

You’re partially right on this. In fact technically I’m second in line as they did say they were first in line for their own demonstrator!

How many OPCs are there in the country?

I'm awaiting the first in queues to be greater than that number :D

I'm about no16 at mine I think.

My understanding is that "volume" was expected Q3 onwards. I imagine that has moved now.

Nope. Was at the dealership today. Ordered (speculative deposit prior to actual launch) mine last Sept so also "1st in line". Apparently production is all over the place and Porsche have told dealers not to over commit on anything. I was expecting mine in Nov'22 but suspect this is 50:50 at best. No allocation as yet but I wouldn't expect this until late May at the earliest in normal times.

Not yet either… and with every month that passes and with MY23 creeping ever closer, in the seemingly unlikely event that allocations start coming through I would now be tempted to bump myself down the list for a couple of months to get an updated car.
